Two letters by Karol Chlapowski published here: the first written on Helena Modrzejewska’s request, and the second, a labor of love, both addressed to a distinguished theatre critic Feliks Koneczny, are in substance nearly an outline of the basic principles of Helena Modrzejewska’s art of acting. Additionally, they are an unusual expression of the memory about the first teachers of attitude to acting and to stage carrier. Worth mentioning is Chlapowski’s opinion that Modrzejewska might also have been fulfilled in other types of art which coincides with Norwid’s view that she might have become the first recognized Polish women writer. The two inconspicuous letters in question are crucial complements of a set of about 1500 letters written or received by Helena Modrzejewska and Karol Chlapowski.

The paper presents views of Polish philosopher of history Feliks Koneczny, (1862–1949) on morality. The author of On the Plurality of Civilisations claims that, the ethics of Latin civilization is a Catholic one. The ethics should be defended against, ethics of other communities because civilizational mixtures lead to moral chaos and non-civilized state. According to the Polish scholar Europe witnesses the progress of, morality but the process is slow. Besides, downfall and retraction of morality are possi-, ble in every community. That is why ethical education is so important both in private, and public life. According to Koneczny, also Christian countries should be distinctly, founded on Christian religion. Polish philosopher’s views – according to the author of, the paper – are significant and up-to-date, though in some points they require a slight, correction

Rozwój moralności w ujęciu Feliksa Konecznego

This article examines the concept of Russia as presented in the historiosophy of the Polish thinker Feliks Koneczny. He argues that Russia represents the Turan civilization, which is the lowest of all civilizations. Its characteristic features include treating the leader as a “half-god” whose whims replace the law, and focusing the community’s life on wars and conquests. The scholar refers to numerous events in Russia’s history which, in his view, support this claim. This article looks critically at Koneczny’s theory, pointing out the omission of culture in his research. It also makes reference to Samuel Huntington’s work and argues that Russia’s belonging to the Orthodox Civilization makes it a barrier to barbarity.

Cywilizacja żydowska w ujęciu Feliksa Konecznego

The article discusses an opinion on the Jews formulated by Feliks Koneczny, an outstanding Polish historian and philosopher. Koneczny assumed that the Jews formed a separate civilization characterized by monolatrism, apriorism, sacralism, dual ethics, legalism, and the lack of historicism. However, other historians and philosophers, e.g. Spengler and Toynbee, claimed that the Jews did not form a separate civilisation, but constituted a part of magic culture or the Syrian civilisation respectively. Koneczny wrote that the Jews had influence on Latin (Western) civilisation through their morality, principles, and religion, and that the influence had disorganizing effect. He even considered Marxism and Hitlerism as manifestations of the Jewish civilisation. The author of the article indicates that Feliks Koneczny was an anti-Semite, though obviously he was far from Nazi-like hostility towards the Jews. The book under discussion, Cywilizacja żydowska [The Jewish Civilisation], expands our knowledge on the chosen nation, but it should also be a warning against racial hatred which consumes even outstanding scholars.
